It’s alarmingly cold right now but the squirrels are happy because Badger (the grumpy tuxedo I have) won’t eat cat food that’s fallen out of the main dish so it goes outside to the squirrels. It’s not a lot but something I know won’t hurt them. I probably should put out actual squirrel food if I was serious about feeding them but let’s face it…. that’s not wise to do if you live in the middle of a forest filled with the buggers. I don’t want a squirrel war on my front porch.

One thing I do miss about living in Hawai’i is oddly enough… prune cake. I have no idea why I love it. And I should just make it but who else but me would eat it. Only because I’m living alone right now but I suppose I could pawn it off on others as well. It might sound odd but it’s really damned tasty and not something you find every day.

Not overly sweet, it’s moist and really flavourful. If you want to take a chance on it, have a go at this cutout newspaper recipe. I can’t remember who gave me this. Probably my mom.

I really just might need to make it.
